Answer:

Mean= $21.5067

Median = $15.8

Standard deviation= $19.02

Coefficient of skewness= $0.8991

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean =( $4.0 +$6.0 +$7.4+ $10.6 +$12.5+ $13.6+ $15.4+ $15.8 +$16.8

+$17.4+ $19.1 +$22.3+ $37.1 +$43.2 +$81.4)/15

Mean =$ 322.6/15

Mean= $21.5067

Median= middle number

Median = $15.8

Variance=( ($4.0-.$21.5)²+( $6.0. -.$21.5)²+( $7.4 -.$21.5)²+( $10.6 -.$21.5)²+( $12.5 -.$21.5)²+( $13.6. -.$21.5)²+ ($15.4 -.$21.5)²+( $15.8 -.$21.5)²+ ( $16.8 -.$21.5)²+ ($17.4-.$21.5)² +($19.1 -.$21.5)²+ ($22.3 -.$21.5)²+ ($37.1 -.$21.5)²+ ($43.2-.$21.5)²+( $81.4-.$21.5)²)/15

Variance=$ 5424.79/15

Variance=$ 361.65

Standard deviation= √ variance

Standard deviation= √361.65

Standard deviation= $19.02

Coefficient of skewness

=3( mean-median)/standard deviation

= 3(21.5-15.8)/19.02

= 3(5.7)/19.02

= 17.1/19.02

Coefficient of skewness= 0.8991

Which statement(s) is (are) correct?

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

<em>statements 3 and 4 are correct.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

The probability of choosing cured pasta and bear= probability that the card is king.

Hence, The probability of choosing cured pasta and bear= $\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}$

Probability of choosing baked cucumber and lime mutton=probability that the card is 3.

as there are 4 cards that are '3'.

Hence Probability of choosing baked cucumber and lime mutton= $\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}$

as both the probabilities are equal.

Hence statement 1 is incorrect.

(2)

The probability of choosing gooseberry & passion fruit cheesecake= Probability taht the card is ace.

as there are 4 cards which are ace out of 52 cards.

Hence, The probability of choosing gooseberry & passion fruit cheesecake= $\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}$

probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator=Probability that the card is a face card.

As there are 12 face cards out of 52 cards.

Hence, probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator= $\dfrac{12}{52}=\dfrac{3}{13}$

Hence, the probability of choosing gooseberry and passion fruit cheesecake is smaller than the probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator.

Hence statement 2 is false.

(3)

The probability of choosing a praline wafer=probability that the card is a diamond.

as there are 13 diamond cards out of 52 cards.

The probability of choosing a praline wafer= $\dfrac{13}{52}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

the probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator=Probability that the card is a face card.

As there are 12 face cards out of 52 cards.

Hence, probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator= $\dfrac{12}{52}=\dfrac{3}{13}$

Hence, The probability of choosing a praline wafer is greater than the probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator.

Hence statement 3 is correct.

(4)

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken =probability that the card is red.

As there are 26 red cards out of 52 cards.

Hence,

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken = $\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

probability of choosing an oven-baked apple & lavender calzone =probability that the card is black.

As there are 26 red cards out of 52 cards.

Hence, probability of choosing an oven-baked apple & lavender calzone= $\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

Hence, The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken and the probability of choosing an oven-baked apple & lavender calzone are the same.

Hence statement 4 is true.

(5)

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken =probability that the card is red.

As there are 26 red cards out of 52 cards.

Hence,

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken = $\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

the probability of choosing a praline wafer=probability that the card is a diamond.

as there are 13 diamond cards out of 52 cards.

The probability of choosing a praline wafer= $\dfrac{13}{52}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Hence, the probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken and the probability of choosing a praline wafer are not same.

Hence, statement 5 is not correct.
